Planificar mi viajeExplora el fascinante pasado de Niagara Falls y descubre cómo se ha desarrollado a lo largo de los siglos.
The name 'Niagara' is derived from the indigenous word 'Onguiaahra', which means 'The Strait' or 'Thundering Waters'. For millennia, the region was home to Iroquois people. French priest Louis Hennepin was the first European to document the falls in 1678, whose description brought this wonder to the attention of the Western world.
In the 19th century, Niagara Falls became a major tourist destination. The arrival of the railway made access easier and hotels began to emerge. The area also became famous for daredevils who attempted to cross the falls on a tightrope or descend in barrels. By the end of the century, the power of the falls was harnessed to generate hydroelectric power, boosting industrial development in the region.
The 20th century saw the creation of parks on both sides of the border to preserve natural beauty and manage tourism. The signing of treaties between the US and Canada regulated the diversion of water for hydroelectric power. Today, Niagara Falls is a dual destination: the Canadian side has developed with a large tourism infrastructure of hotels and attractions, while the American side focuses on the state park experience.
